We know you’re seasoned New Yorkers 🍎😉—but we would be remiss if we didn’t cover a few tips on keeping your family safe during this cold snap: 🥶 Layering is key! It traps heat and helps moving from inside to outside and inside again. Avoid cotton as it absorbs moisture making you feel cold and wet. Opt for moisture wicking materials found at stores like @uniqlousa or @32degreesofficial 🥶 Protect hands & feet! You probably already know this but your hands and feet are more susceptible to frostbite. Mittens, and insulated boots for our little city dwellers! 🥶 Tis the season for a hat! Your head loses a lot of heat so let’s keep those noggins covered! 🥶 Limit outdoor play on days like today when temperatures are really extreme. 🥶 Stay dry! Sweating from activity or playing in snow? Check your kiddos for wet clothing or shoes. Opt for waterproof and insulated materials. Wet clothes and feet increase the chance of hypothermia. 🥶 Take a break with a warm beverage like hot chocolate ☕️ ! There is reason we have more of this deliciousness during the colder months, warm beverages help the body stay warm internally. So offer up the cider and decaf teas or hot chocolate and enjoy taking a break from the elements. 🥶 Have a favorite cold weather product for kids’ strollers or getting stubborn kids to wear hats and gloves? Drop it below or in our stories 📲
